Gilles contacted me via phone and email regarding some updated headshots and portraits for his business Eukairos.
We discussed what was required and Gille also sent over some examples.

Portraits Of: Katie

This is one of those shoot’s I meant to blog but then got busy and totally forgot. #mybad
Back in Feb 2017 Katie visited the studio for a shoot. Pretty sure it has been a good 2-3 years since we last worked together. Must not let that happen again.
The title image of this blog post shows the BTS. It’s rare I will shoot on a tripod unless I’m shooting product work but at times it is worth it for portraits to give you a consistent framing and a fixed camera position for the subject to play to.
To start with we worked with seated portraits on the ridiculously high stool I bought from Tesco’s last year.
I find that having a client or subject sit down is an easier way to start a shoot and it can help make them feel at ease. Katie has no problem getting straight in to a shoot.
On to some images.
#makeportraits - Ali
During 2018 I had gotten busier with work which was great but also busier in my head. Shooting for clients is great and I love it, but you have to fulfil your own creativity or you burn out.
So towards the end of the year I sat down and made a page on my site for #makeportraits and a signup page so folk could let me know a few things about them.
Portraits of Ozzy

After shooting some head shots for Ozzy I asked if it’s ok to shoot some additional images, he kindly said yes.
Whenever I can I will get the shots wanted in the bag and then try to shoot something extra or different. It gives me new images and it can give a client options.
